Shanghai Disney Resort strengthens smoking control measures

Shanghai Disney Resort unveiled new smoking control measures on Monday during an outdoor smoking control roundtable, aimed at enhancing visitor experience and park operations.

The new measures, taking effect on May 29 ahead of World No Tobacco Day on May 31 and International Children's Day on June 1, include reducing designated smoking areas, upgrading no-smoking signage, and implementing a reminder card system.

Following a comprehensive review and assessment of existing smoking points, the resort will eliminate 24 smoking areas, cutting the total number by about half. Shanghai Disneyland will have 11 designated smoking areas.

The adjustments focus on high-traffic zones where non-smoking visitors previously reported unavoidable exposure to smoke, and heavily congested secondary pathways. Several smoking points, including those near the main park entrance, will be relocated to optimize guest flow.
